Intro
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
Verse
When the [G]fire burns out here
It's [D]brighter than the city lights
[Em] Warmer than a heart of [C]gold
And [G]dingos howl just to break the [D]silence
The [Em]sun comes up just to break the [C]cold
[G] Last night I woke with the [D]stars looking back at me
[Em] Swallowing the [C]sky
[G] I felt no anger
[D] I felt no shame
[Em] I felt no reason to [C]cry
Chorus
[D] If I'm not here in the [G]morning
[D] I'll cry a river of [G]tears
[G] I'll learn to live in a [D]new town
[C] But my heart is staying [G]here [D]
Instrumental
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
Verse
When it's [G]quiet out here
[D] A hundred miles away
[Em]You can hear the train on the [C]line
The [G]whistle blows just to break the [D]silence
[Em] I wave just to break the [C]time
[G] I close my [D]eyes, I think of runnin' water
[Em] I think of runnin' [C]away
But the [G]fire's burned to ashes
And it's [D]darker than before
But [Em]I can see as clear as [C]day
Chorus
[D] If I'm not here in the [G]morning
[D] I'll cry a river, river [G]of tears
[G] I'll learn to live in a [D]new town
[C] But my heart is staying [G]here
[G] I'll learn to live in a [D]new town
[C] But my heart is staying [G]here
